No contest, TOOL wins. Where is G n' R today? They had their time when they were considered musically the $#!T, but they faded. Tool has been around for 15 years or so and they are still revered as one of the most original and influential bands TODAY. Funny you posted this today because I just bought 4 tickets for their July 3rd concert here in Michigan. 4 tickets cost me $352.95!!! Ticketmaster should be arrested for sodomy!

Also for the record, although Maynard is a little guy he still flipped that idiot on his ass and made him tapout while still performing on stage. That $#!T was TOO funny! If you haven't seen it, check it out on youtube. Talk about getting owned!

live, GNR owns tool.  GNR shows were an event.  Tool is a packaged product.  GNR would eventually self-destruct, and everyone knew it.  Tool will keep plugging away with safe shows that rock, but don't make news.  GNR should have broken up at the peak of use your Illusion and never done a reunion.  They would have been remembered as one of the greatest bands ever. This new shell of a band is a disappointment.

their live sound got so stale when sorum and clark joined. I can't stand Tool. Guns live at the Ritz is fucking insane.

Axl Rose is on crazy Mother F*(ker.  He backs his shit talkin up quite well.  Give him a bottle of Jack
and a gram of coke, and he'll bite one of you're fingers off.  He is clinically psychotic.  This guy has his brother and himself guarding his Malibu Palace with Uzi's.  He is the only musician that has actually fucked the music business in the ass, rather then getting it.

STOCKHOLM, Sweden - Axl Rose was arrested early Tuesday after allegedly biting a security guard in the leg at his hotel, police said.

The Guns N’ Roses frontman was ordered held in jail by prosecutors on suspicion of attacking and threatening the guard, as well as causing damage to the Berns Hotel where the alleged scuffle took place, said police spokeswoman Towe Hagg.

Rose, 44, could be kept in jail until Friday, Hagg said.

Good to see a G n' R thread revisited. I've seen GR perhaps 12-13 times. First time was summer of 88' @ Club Lingerie (it holds about 90 people) on Sunset. Dudes, those cats were strong... real strong. Today? Who gives a rats ass.

Guns and Rose will always win. End of story.

When Guns and Roses first came out, we had the pleasure of listening to the tapes from the concerts before they ever became popular here in Los Angeles from a friend of ours. They were great. They took the rock world by storm when Appetite for Destruction came out, and the rest of the states knew what us in Los Angeles knew, that this group was crazy, and had one of the greatest rock songs at that time.

Tool never made it to that level of infamy.

Safe shows? Tool? They put on the freakiest show I've ever seen. True freaks but incredible musicians and Maynard is the strangest front man on the planet. Tool will never be able to compete with GNR when comparing popularity but that doesn't prove much.

Tool wins this battle for being outrageous musicians, putting on insane shows and for not giving a schit about being popular or mainstream.

Even A Perfect Circle kicked ass.

Who wins in....

Best talent? Best songs? Made most money? In a fight?

Duff McKagan could prolly bodyslam the whole Tool-band.



His pancreas would disagree.


    Anyway I don't think many people have heard of Tool outside of committed rock fans, whereas GnR are acknowledged as one of the greatest rock and roll bands of all time. They spoke to SO many more people with their music and left a HELL of a lot of a bigger imprint on our society and culture. Tool are awesome but they are confined to the restaints of prog metal and all the arty pretentions therein. GnR WERE rock to a whole generation. Axle is a pussy though and Maynard would probably crush him and the rest of those junkie bastards physically, as long as Axle didn't jab him with a needle or something!

Don't forget Axl jacked Kurt Cobain in the face AND THEN called Cobain's wife Courtney Love a bitch.
